Hey there, I’m Dr. Jael (pronounced Hi-Yell).

My journey into chiropractic started while helping my mom recover from shoulder surgery. Seeing how much intentional, consistent care supported her healing inspired me to become a provider who could offer that same support to others. With a background in kinesiology and experience working alongside physical therapists in sports performance and rehab, I take a well-rounded approach to care especially when it comes to stress, movement, and overall wellness.

I’m a Bay Area native and a first-generation Nicaraguan American, and I love serving my community. I’m fluent in English and Spanish and enjoy working with people of all ages. I’m especially passionate about supporting those dealing with stress and anxiety, helping you feel more connected, grounded, and in tune with your body.

My approach is gentle and intentional. I’m Webster Certified and certified in Nasal Specific Technique, which can help improve breathing, reduce sinus pressure, support better sleep, and enhance overall nervous system regulation. My goal is always to create a space where you feel heard, supported, and confident in your health.

Outside the office, my husband and I love cooking (and eating!), I’m always getting my daily walks in so I’ll gladly take any Bay Area recs—and I love spending time near the ocean whenever I can.

Looking forward to supporting you on your health journey!

My experience with chiropractic began as a child when my grandmother took me to her chiropractor to see if he could help with my asthma. Within several adjustments, my asthma was resolved. As a result, my parents and younger brother began chiropractic care as well. It became a regular part of my life and eventually it would become my career of choice.

I am a Bay Area native, born and raised in San Jose and currently reside in San Mateo with my wife and two children. I love spending time with my family and friends and coaching my children’s sports teams when I can. I also passionately root for the San Jose Sharks, San Francisco 49ers, San Francisco Giants, Wrexham AFC and Manchester United. If I am not helping people with their health and wellness, coaching or watching my favorite teams, I will be at Nazareth Ice Oasis playing as much hockey as I can!

In Health,

Dr. Kyle Taketa, DC
